Artist Talk - Kevin Miyazaki

Kevin Miyazaki
Photographer
By: Kathryn Fiorita

Wednesday night at UWM the lecture series, Artist Now, presents a diverse group of artist. The series is both class and designed for a large audience with an interest in a range of contemporary visual art. Recently Kevin Miyazaki, a talented photographer spoke.
Miyazaki started his career as a photojournalist and sports photographer, expanding his interests to explore architecture, portraits, fashion and food. He had been a freelance photographer for 12 years now, working in exotic locations for magazines, which compensates for low pay.

The project that I was drawn to the most was his project Fast Food.  This project is tracking the visual imprint made by the American fast food restaurant on our cultural and visual landscape.  I am very interested in this project because how he is capturing out of business venues these images.
